Emiliano Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro, Atlantic Forest
The Emiliano brings a unique facade to the iconic Copacabana beachfront. Perfectly perforated concertina panels throw light and shadows across guest rooms, folding away to reveal premium panoramas, giving the Emiliano an ever-changing look. The design-forward hotel proposes a sophisticated, subtle version of 1950s Rio glamour – think moss green hues and leather furniture, coffee tables and soft mood lighting.
90 light, airy guest rooms feel stylish and peaceful – opt for an ocean facing suite for wonderful balcony-framed vistas of golden sands, wide open Atlantic Ocean, and Sugarloaf Mountain. The spa-like bathrooms are a luxurious treat, featuring sleek marble and deep soaking tubs. In between exploring the cultural and natural wonders on your doorstep, spend a relaxing afternoon sunning by the rooftop pool and eat at the hotel’s Emile restaurant with its amazingly lush vertical garden.
Ideal for: Oceanfront luxury, sophisticated design, Copacabana beach
- Why we love it
- Highlights
- Positive Impact
This is one of the few boutique luxury properties on Copacabana beach. The prime oceanfront location gives guests immediate access to one of Rio’s most famous, and coveted, stretches of sand. The smaller hotel has a high ratio of staff to rooms so you can enjoy excellent, personalized service.
The front facade’s eye-catching design also grants guests an element of privacy. Known in Brazil as ‘cobogós’, the structures can enclose verandas for moments of seclusion but still let you see outside through the small openings. Alternatively, push it wide open to feel out there and connected to the ocean.
Breakfast is a highlight—we can’t get enough of the amazing little sweets served from Emiliano Rio’s patisserie! The infinity pool right at the top of the hotel boasts a unique view while feeling private and exclusive.
